As we ride past the Shark going to belt out :

 

"Baby shark do do do, baby shark!!....."

If you had successfully recruited Oss and Burghart..like I told you to, you def would've been able too.. hope Nibali has a more successful DC than Viviani last year

 

 

Tell him I say Hi

 

 

Edit: perhaps you wouldn't be able to... too much suffering..

Just Sharing from 1 of my groups.. Wont be the worst thing this year to say say hi to Nibali or see him ride past me on the road...

 

Jan Frondeno (2x Kona winner. And best iroman on earth atm, current 70.3 world champ)

 

Daniella Ryf - current ladies ironman world champ and probably the greatest ladies ironman of all time.

 

Chris McCorrmack - The greatest ironman of all time. Record for most ironman wins. And multiple Kona wins.

 

Nino Schurter - Currently MTB world champion and multiple Cape Epic winner.

 

The Bronlee Brother - World champion Triathetes and Olympic gold medalists.

 

Oh and add Vincenzo Nibali to that. Grand tour rider, probably top 5 cyclist in the world atm.

 

The list goes on....and on and on.

 

I even hear they flying them all in to Swellendam on helicopters just to let everyone know who’s in town

 

Anyone aware of any other "big names" cycling this years DC?? Besides those Savage okes LOL...

 

So does anybody have a spot on their team, for some reason I have his feeling I have to be there :clap:

Didata boys still in town?

 

could auction slots to be the 10/11/12 member of their team for beeg bux

It's going to take a very special person to dish out money to be on the receiving end of a beating.

 

I say this because that's exactly what happened to us last year (although no money changed hands). One solitary DiData rider - Nic Dlamini - single handedly managed to put 11 of us into a very very dark place.

 

We had the rather interesting situation where riders were fighting to NOT be on his wheel. The sneakiness of the moves we pulled to avoid the spot of death got quite creative. Skip a turn at first. Pretend your number was coming off. Need to tighten your shoe. The fake bonk. A tactical vomit. A foot in your spokes. We did it all!

 

And heaven help you if you got your Shleckchute timing wrong and ended up as rider number 6. A very k@k place to be!

yeah... Valgren's strava shows he's petrified of something every hill he goes up - show's he's running from something

He is on honeymoon
